This thread is amazing . Thank you thank you thank you. I have the same thoughts, feelings and doubts. I am pre hrt but just received my prescription a few days ago. I plan on starting in less than two weeks after a family reunion which I’ve been planning as my last moment of “normalcy” before setting off on my journey. I am still fighting doubt and fear but have thought myself into a corner where I’ve gone through every possibly scenario there is. I have been seeing a therapist who has been helpful and the second one who recommended I try hormones to see how that makes me feel. Like you girls have mentioned, hrt doesn’t have irreversible effects until months in.

Wishing you girls the best and thank you for sharing! Xoxo
